G+G           A minorAm
Go to sleep you weary hobo.
C majorC              G+G
Let the trains drift slowly by.
D MajorD                A minorAm
Don't you hear the steel rail humming?
D MajorD          G+G
That's a hobo's lullaby.

G+G                A minorAm
I know, your clothes are torn and ragged.
C majorC            G+G
And your hair is turning grey.
D MajorD              A minorAm
Lift your head and smile at trouble.

You'll find peace and rest someday.

G+G          A minorAm
Do not think about tomorrow.
C majorC           G+G
Let tomorrow come and go.
D MajorD              A minorAm
Tonight your in a nice warm boxcar.
D MajorD            G+G
Safe from all the wind and snow.

  G+G            A minorAm
So, go to sleep you weary hobo.
C majorC             G+G
Let the towns drift slowly by.
D MajorD                A minorAm
Don't you feel the steel rail humming?

C majorC         G+G
That's a hobo's lullaby...
C majorC         G+G
That's, a hobo's lullaby
